The housing comes from Chris Alston Chassisworks. We weld our custom spindle in the ends to your required width.
The spindle allows you to use stock GM 10 bolt 6 lug 4x4 front hubs, rotors, brake backing plate, and calipers for a full float disc brake rear end.
If you want 8 lug then use the same setup off of an 8 lug GM 10 bolt front.
If you want 5 on 5.5 use approx. 83 to 96 Dodge front hubs and rotors and the rest common 10 bolt or D44 backing plate and calipers.
If you need emergency/parking brakes use these calipers http://www.tsmmfg.com/3120.htm

I am really glad that you guys have come out with these as it makes the True Hi9 option much easier since a customer does not have to source their own housing now. Any ideas for the fronts? Is pricing for a complete rear confidential and can only be known by calling or PM?
Thanks, True Hi9.

The pricing as for now is $1699.00 for 31 spline as it will come WITH a pair of high quality axles that we have been running for a few years now with no problems.
The housing setup will allow the use of 35 spline axles and that price for now will be $1499.00 but the buyer supplies his own axles.
They will NOT have chassis or shock mounts
Both ways come with the correct drive flanges, outer adapter bearing and race for the hub, and hub end caps.
Our thinking is that for the avid do-it-yourselfer it is a good starting point since the hubs, rotors, and brake setup can be had for very little cost if their willing to go used. Around here these parts can usually be had for about nothing costwise.

We're basically just buying a premade cnc bent and cnc welded center with tubes installed from http://cachassisworks.com/ and welding our custom built 4140 spindles in the end and then supplying the rest of the little parts to make use of exsisting cheap/used hubs rotors and brakes.
If a person wanted a front they could just buy the center and tubes from them or Strange and put whatever stuff from the C's on out. Unfortunatly we don't know an economical/easy way to come up with those parts.
